SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Three point guards from the American Athletic Conference – UConn’s Jalen Adams, SMU’s Shake Milton and Landry Shamet of Wichita State – were named to the watch list for the 2018 Bob Cousy Award, given annually by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and College of the Holy Cross to the top point guard in men’s college basketball.
Players can earn their way onto the list throughout the season. Former UConn players Kemba Walker (2011) and Shabazz Napier (2014) are past winners of the award.
Named after Hall of Famer and former Boston Celtic and Holy Cross guard Bob Cousy, the annual honor now in its 14th year, recognizes the top point guards in Division I men’s college basketball.
